what we offer
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Brazilian jiu-jitsu emphasizes getting an opponent to the ground in order to use ground fighting techniques and submission holds involving joint-locks and chokeholds. A more precise way of describing this would be to say that on the ground, physical strength can be offset or enhanced by an experienced grappler who knows how to maximize force using mechanical advantage instead of pure physical strength.
Muay Thai
Muay Thai or literally Thai boxing is a combat sport of Thailand that uses stand-up striking along with various clinching techniques.This discipline is known as the "art of eight limbs" as it is characterized by the combined use of fists, elbows, knees, and shins.
Kids Classes
Our Kids Program is designed to familiarize your child with the etiquette of being on the mat and also teach them to use Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu as a way to defend against a physical confrontation. Other benefits include: improved balance, coordination, flexibility, and overall physical fitness. Our instructors will show them the many forms of bullying and how to deal with it from the moment it starts.

Off the Grid BJJ is clean, beautiful, well equipped, and located at a gorgeous site. Just as I drove in 10 miles on the... causeway the sun and beach scenery just melt any bad moods away (even if your face is also melting from the car sauna). Frank was super welcoming, and surprisingly remembered me. He had very creative methods of drilling where he set handicaps which would improve both players fundamental understanding of key positions. Even his newest white belts reflected this knowledge, and the friendly environment was great. Having a bit of wear still on the ankles from a previous injury, I was a little worried about impulsively jumping into an open mat, but everyone, from the newest guys to the pros, was respectful and there to learn and get better. And that's a great environment to be a part of.read more

I started training here after checking into a few gyms. The Members and coaches in this gym are super friendly and... after a few classes have you feeling like a part of the family. The coaches have some of the smoothest technique I’ve seen anywhere and breakdown their techniques so even the newest members can understand it. Also if you’re on a budget this is one of the cheaper gym memberships in the area. Some of the other gyms charge more per month for two classes a week than what OTG BJJ charges for unlimited classes a month. They offer classes 7 days a week for adults(mon-Friday 6-8 and sat&sun 12-2) also they offer children’s classes 430-6 Tue-Thur. Ultimately, if you’re looking for a gym to get back in shape, learn to defend yourself, or just meet some good people I would highly recommend this gym!read more
